This video will show you how to calibrate the Tony Hawk Ride skateboard peripheral for a goofy foot stance configuration. Note that goofy foot is when the right leg is placed ahead of the left leg when balancing and riding on a skateboard. This video was created considering that the game does not recognize the stance selection when in calibration mode (calibrates as if in regular foot stance), and when turning the board around 180 degrees to use it in goofy foot stance in-game, the calibration of the sensors become all wrong. This video shows you a quick and easy way to remedy this.

Note that this video should also theoretically apply to the Tony Hawk Shred game and should apply to all three supported platforms: Nintendo Wii, Microsoft Xbox 360 and Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3).

Also note that if your board is having trouble syncing with the USB dongle sensor, try replacing the provided Duracell Alkaline batteries with cheaper, non-alkaline batteries and your problems should be solved.
